Jazz guitar refers to both the guitar style and technique used within jazz music, typically featuring hollow-body or semi-hollow electric guitars, complex chord voicings, and improvisational soloing over chord changes. Players study jazz harmony, scales, and standards to develop the ability to improvise fluently within a band setting. It is a popular pursuit for musicians who enjoy the genre's harmonic sophistication and the challenge of melodic improvisation, with notable players including Wes Montgomery and Joe Pass.
